@#$%&! Kieran Sporn...

Hey....... He was part of the brotherhood. A brother that my mates and I held in esteem, a brother that we found every time he touched the ball at least one us would preface their name with F**ken.

It was an elite select group that emptied our wallets and kept our vitamin B intake at record levels.

He was a f**ken brother, have some respect!!!


I think you'll find he was an uncle.

I've realised why all you guys heap crap on carlton. It's because you're scared and angry and spoilt. You're scared of failure and embarrassment so it's just you're way of protecting yourself from the weekend. If there is a glimmer of hope you'll come back to the club with tentative little kitten steps looking for warm milk instead of angry 'beasts' that bark from safe houses . I've seen it time and time again. Why don't you all grow a pair and stop complaining and acting like Bruce MATHIESON . The club is rebuilding as we speak. Malthouse has cleared half the bloody list and his recruitment has been very good in the last 3 years. We are struggling a bit because we actually started the rebuild last year by clearing out those who had the wrong attitude. You're so caught up in your petty emotions you can't see the process taking place. No successful club or person ever had the majority of types like you behind it I can guarantee that.


has it?
I can't help feeling you haven't been going to our games year in, year out, supporting, being patient,
finding things to like, remaining hopeful.
It seems from your post, like you are looking in from the outside, but hey,
that's just a feeling I get.
maybe it's because you don't seem to get that our club has been held to ransom by a few so called elite who took away our right to vote on board members, and have steered our club and all we held dear about it
to the brink of no return.
You reel out a few cliches, goodness you sound like Rohan bloody Connolly.
Eddie Betts had the wrong attitude did he?
Carlton has been lucky to have the incredibly patient and passionate supporters it has.like us....
who want the best for the club.
Turn around??
where is the passion in the players? where is the team spirit and cohesive team play??


I was there in 93, I was there in 99 prelim, and I was there for quite a few in between and after. The board are blue blooded dead sh:$ts I totally agree. I was screaming out bad drafting decisions when Kieran Sporn ran out onto PP. I've been there in the crowd. I know what you are saying but what I'm saying is that it's different this time. Mick is fixing this club. We have to get behind him. If we don't then it will only get a lot worse. Even Wayne Carey backs him. The person we need to axe is BM not Mick and not a dozen MORE players. The BM types at board level are a scourge on the soul and mind of our club.



what we have to do is get rid of micky his recruitment officer Nanette and Christie his specialist supporter then we can move in the right direction

micky should retire and go enjoy his grandchildren but then again they probably have had enough of the waffling also

How is that Betts , Garlett, Waite and to some extent Robinson are all doing well in other teams?
I don't read about bad attitude or disruptive influences anywhere. In fact more like valuable contribution to their new teams.
Well there're not much more Mick can shed for no returns so let's see whatt happens next.

Without Merrett, my sister would have kicked 7 against the Lions, and she can't even kick straight. He went goalless the week before in "hot" company.

How did Garlett go last Saturday when the heat was on?

Eddie went back to SA to be closer to his sick father and because the Blues did not match Crows offer after an indifferent final year with us. Thomas was set for a good year before he went down Rd 1, let's just see how this "swap" plays out the next few years when Daisy gets back out there. It was his shoulder that went, not the "dodgy" ankle.

Move on FFS.

To be fair Fev got injured. He still kicked 49 from 16 games despite being able to barely run.

7 goals is 7 goals, always a star effort. He also played well often in big games here too. Garlett's never been one to go missing either when he was at his top with us. Played some decent finals. Tipping Betts will go better than Daisy. Betts is a gun. Robbo was always good value but hope Whiley can do a job in similar vein.

Make no mistake, we have lost alot. Our forwaerd line is feeling it. Pity we didn't do better than picks 61 & 79 for Garlett.

I agree.
Furthermore Betts has always kicked plenty of goals when the midfield is dominating - like the Crows midfield has for the last 2 weeks. I doubt he would have had much impact for us against Richmond or West Coast.

pretty sure he kicked around 50 goals last year in a team that finished outside the eight
but then again we picked up a great 700k forward defensive love child :thumbsup:

Mick has been there for 2 years and two weeks. You can't keep changing head coaches every 2 years or you become Richmond.

Give him to at least round 11 which will mark what I believe will be his half way point.

Listen to hysterical supporters and Jon Ralph at your peril.

Exactly. I don't miss Betts in OUR team at all. Watching them kick it to him like he is a 6ft 6 hulking forward for the past few years has been infuriating.

Murphy isn't injured and Warnock is as much of a spud as Wood.

Smith, Boekhorst, Byrne, Buckley Whiley and DVR... planning on playing 2 quarters or 4?

Prepare to be disappointed whether you get your wish or not...

Your hating this aren't you. :wink:

I agree about Warnock or Wood but what choice do we have?

Murphy is injured. Really struggling with a knee. Should be rested.

Why would I be disappointed? We're rebuilding, playing the kids. Finally some hope. :clap:

Go and read my changes and you'll see I'm all for bringing in kids, I just don't see the problem picking Walker and Armfield when they're in form.

They won't be holding a kid back, they'll be adding a dimension to the team: speed.
